That's incredible luck for you! So wonderful when it all comes together like that and you know you'll just LOVE it forever! I really like the pinwheel in the center plus that special stitching gives great texture.:)

Those blocks waited patiently all those years for just the right person to come along... you. I like to imagine how thrilled the original seamstress is, looking down on you and what you have done with her patches. Pretty cool!

Lone Star is one of my favourite quilt designs but lining up all the diamonds has always instilled terror in my heart. The artist's quilt that inspired you and you're consequent interpretation with these precious pieces is wonderful. Another Nifty classic for sure.

About Me

I've been making quilts since 2005, and am a big fan of Gwen Marston, Anna Williams, Denyse Schmidt, the Gee's Bend gals and old string quilts--the quirkier, the better. I love new fabrics, but my favorite source is the men's shirt rack at the local thrift shop.
